Chief Engineer, MV Switchgear

Required

• The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
• 15+ years of electrical engineering on medium-voltage switchgear, either at an equipment manufacturer or specifying and commissioning it for mission-critical facilities.
• Hands-on with metal-clad and metal-enclosed switchgear, vacuum circuit breakers, protection relays, and arc-resistant designs.
• Working knowledge of IEEE C37, IEC 62271, and NEC requirements for medium-voltage installations.
• You write specifications that a vendor can bid without a meeting.
• You're comfortable with regular travel: expect 25% or more, depending on business needs.
• Most of our engineering team, stakeholders, and work are based in Austin, TX, and we value working in person. We have a strong preference for Austin and run a hybrid model, but we're open to other locations for the right role and candidate.
• Bonus: Professional Engineer license. Experience with switchgear for high-density compute loads. Exposure to solid-state breakers or medium-voltage DC.
• Physical Requirements
• Work in non-climate-controlled environments, including active construction areas, data halls, electrical and mechanical rooms, and outdoor spaces. Temperatures can be high or low, and conditions can be humid, loud or dusty.
• Lift, carry, push and pull up to 40 pounds on your own.
• Sit, stand, walk, kneel, bend and crouch for long periods, including full shifts on your feet.
